LETTER: The legacy of Harry Reid
November 24, 2022 - 9:01 pm
I was shocked at the praise hurled on the late Harry Reid by Review-Journal columnist Steve Sebelius on Sunday (“Cortez Masto keeps her Senate seat, but just barely”). I liked Mr. Reid for several reasons, none of which I’ll share. And I disliked him for more reasons, also none of which I’ll share. My parents and religion taught me never to speak ill of the dead.
But I will say, for those living and writing about the late senator, that if the best you have to say is that the Reid political machine got a few Democrats elected, you don’t have much. And please don’t tell me he has an airport named after him. I remember the person who was the original airport’s namesake.
